Wallingford/Jarlov Family Trees

Harvester Post Office, established June 9, 1887 and discontinued January 31, 1913 was in Northeast Waller County and was believed to have been named for the abundance agricultural crops raised in the area - mostly cotton and corn. The location may be spotted by driving eight tenths a mile eastward on Hegar Road from its intersection with Kickapoo Road. At a bend in the road at this point, on a slight rise on the south side of Hegar Road, the old building sat. In conjunction with the post office, there was also a small country store, and in the community close by was a Baptist Church, forerunner of Friendship Baptist Church of today. Too, a country doctor, who made his rounds in a buggy, lived nearby.

Assuming he died before 1910 as he was not with the family on the 1910 Waller County, Texas census. One unconfirmed reference has September 1908 so I have put that until more is found.
